The cruise giant said it would use the proceeds “for general corporate purposes” after reporting an adjusted third quarter loss of $1.7 billion.
Since March, the company has raised nearly $12 billion through a series of financial transactions. The latest share issue follows a loan facility of $2.8 billion agreed in June and another $1.3 billion of secured bonds issued in July, among other measures.
Carnival said its average monthly cash burn in the third quarter was $770 million, in line with expectations. It estimates next quarter cash burn at $530 a month.
